London area of Lambeth guide
What to do and where to stay in London's Lambeth neighbourhood
While most London Boroughs look in towards the centre of town, Lambeth’s heart is in the South with nearby hotels choosing the buzzing South Bank as their home. Dozens of welcoming bars and clubs play reggae, ska, hip-hop and dance music all night long, while jerk chicken sizzles outside in steel drum barbecues. Further south, in Stockwell and Kennington, things take a Latin turn: tapas bars and fish restaurants line the streets, and people speak a complicated mixture of English, patois and Portuguese. One of Lambeth's gems is the Imperial War Museum, an interactive and thought-provoking family day out, and not too far away is The Oval cricket ground, a great place to watch matches – especially when England play the West Indies, who still have plenty of fans in the area.
